Preview

Note

This is still a prototype and I'm planning to include more functionality like GUI

Further Development

• export logs to cloud storage
• retrieve logs from cloud storage
• add logtype, log context, tags (comma separated) field(s) to database (used for log classification while data munging)
• add GUI support (probably PySimpleGUI for now)
• prompt to log after every set time interval
• generate log summary in PDF
• email support for log summary to specific targets. (daily or monthly)
